When asked by a journalist whether Russia plans to use any other forces in the SAR besides the Aerospace Forces, Peskov replied:
“President Putin has repeatedly stated that Russia will be limited only to the military-air component and that there is no talk of a ground operation. In addition, I would like to remind you that the operation of the Russian Aerospace Forces is carried out precisely in support of the ground offensive operation of the Armed Forces of the Syrian Arab Republic.
